Description

These Banana Bread Chocolate Chip Cookies are the perfect combination of moist banana bread and chewy cookies. Packed with ripe bananas, chocolate chips, and a hint of vanilla, these cookies are soft, flavorful, and easy to make. Perfect for breakfast or as a snack!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using) in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until combined.
  • Mix in the mashed banana until smooth.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
  • Scoop dough using a tablespoon or cookie scoop and place onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Make sure to use a ripe banana for the best flavor and texture.
  • You can substitute milk chocolate or dark chocolate chips if you prefer.
  • These cookies store well in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
